It is possible that our next game will be against Forest. If that is the case, what better time to sack him than now? Give the new manager a couple of weeks to work with the players, let the new set piece coach work with the players and most importantly, give the fans a real lift going into the game! 

Well a lot of us would think that, and yet its not going to happen, and those at the "top" just seem to be frozen with indecision.

So my strong guess is that nothing will happen

It won't happen, I agree. However, it would be a logical time to make a change.

Brendan will be unhappy that he had to go through that presser yesterday for no good reason ….

This is the only positive I can take away from this. I'll cherish it

Nah. He’s got a Gucci belt mate. 

[st albans fox]

The possible postponement of next weekend would leave us with 1 point at the beginning of October 

 

now I know the circumstances are that it’s still 6 games but surely he can’t survive that ???

 

the added bonus that a new man would get several weeks to work with the squad is surely attractive in making a quick call on this 

 

if there are issues between rodgers and the players then having them spend the next week and most of them the int break together is not going to help 

[Aleksz]

Can’t decide if the idea of probably not playing for nigh on a month is a good thing or a bad thing for our situation here.

 

On one hand Brendan’s not going to have these next games to finish him off, but on the other hand there’s a LONG time to get a new name in and settled now.

 

To be a fly on the wall in the board room right now.

Are we allowed to sack a manager at this time?  Better check with the FA ! 

[Mike Oxlong]

Good job they got Chas in position quickly otherwise Brendan would have applied for the vacant monarch position 

[Happy Fox]

Sack him asap, and bring in a new manager ahead of Forest.

Nah, they would have gone for Roy Hodgson, who already has plenty of experience managing the Palace...

[Arriba Los Zorros]

Please Top use this unexpected extra time to sort out the severance package and line up the replacement. We gotta be opportunistic here.

[KFS]

Would be perfect timing. This is essentially a mini pre-season and chance to get this back 5 working together

 

Iversen

Castagne

Faes

Evans

JJ

 

Moving two games to January means we may have Riccy back for them and chance to get a few in the door in the winter window. Postponements could be a blessing.

Pretty Optimistic on Ricky based on normal Achilles recovery

To add to this, with the postponements our next run of games is this

 

Forest 

Bournemouth

Palace

Leeds

 

Sack Rodgers now, get the new guy training his team and tactics for three weeks, then four wins on the bounce. Simple. 

[foxinsocks]

No games for three weeks... ideal time to fire Rodgers and get someone new in

[Gazza M]

It beggars belief if the board think 3 weeks extra work will mean he does anything different. He had preseason and the squad is not even in good shape fitness wise never mind tactically. Get him gone now!

[Hollism]

We’re gonna sack him after the Forest game and this month will have gone to waste.

[CrispinLA in Texas]

Potters got 3 weeks to train with his squad before a game while our boys will be seeing Brendan face for 3 weeks trying to pretend he's a changed man 😟

[Grebfromgrebland]

Hopefully this can be a reset and we can actually start the season again. Pretend it's was all a dream or something

Makes it all the more sweeter 

[Tuna]

If the next two games are postponed, the club need to move to sack Rodgers immediately, loads of time to get a replacement in who can work with the players, it would be completely stupid to give Rodgers the Forest game!

Is Brendan Rodgers a cat? 9 lives and all that?!

 

Likelyhood is he has atleast another 3 or 4 weeks now.

 

When it was quite feasible he’d have been gone after tomorrow - which is way longer than he should have had anyway.

Also not beyond realms of possibility that Cags could rediscover form under a new manager

[lgfualol]

Based on how the club has operated lately, it'll probably be 3 weeks of Rodgers destroying the squad further and then getting sacked after we get battered by Forest, leaving the replacement with a lot of work to do.
